Spanish-American Poetry: A Dual-Language Anthology

'Brief volume of selections ranging from colonial period (Ercilla, Sor Juana) to Neruda. Some longer poems are represented by very short excerpts. Poems have been included with pedagogical purposes in mind, as 'popular poems that have endured' that lend themselves to memorization and recitation. Accurate, though uninspired literal translations. En face, with short biographical information on each writer'--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.http://www.loc.gov/hlas/
